[ http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.libtool.patches/7314/focus=7498 ]

Thanks Charles for all your work on this.  I installed this path into
Libtool HEAD, and pulled the changes over to gnulib.  Here's what the
gnulib patch looks like.

Cheers,
Ralf

        * lib/argz_.h: ensure error_t definition is obtained in same
        mechanism system argz.h would have.
        * m4/argz.m4 (gl_FUNC_ARGZ): add new test to check if $host's
        argz facilities are known bad.  Err on the side of caution if
        cross-compiling.
